If proxy_bind contains a local address of the other family, an error like these occurs: [crit]: *1 bind(0.0.0.0) failed (22: Invalid argument) while connecting to upstream [crit]: *1 bind(::) failed (97: Address family not supported by protocol) while connecting to upstream nginx already queries both the A and AAAA records, but for actual connection establishment, it needs to choose the record type matching to the proxy_bind address family. If the proxy_bind address is IPv4 and hostnames are resolved dynamically, ipv6=off can be set in the resolver as a workaround, but there is no ipv4=off option for IPv6 proxy_bind addresses. This bug can be reproduced in http and stream. A config file for reproducing this bug is attached.
